Free Runner Tim Shieff: Do More Than Survive

This vegan athlete goes to extraordinary lengths to show the power of kindness.

Tim "Livewire" Shieff, world champion free runner and American Ninja Warrior veteran, is living proof of how switching to a vegan diet helps you stay fit, strong and at peak performance:

"I'm healthier and happier than I've ever been and most importantly, no animals are harmed. Since going vegan I can train longer and harder and even noticed my body heals a lot quicker. I used to have tendonitis which has completely cleared up!"

More and more professional athletes are recognising the physical and ethical benefits of a plant-based diet, including boxer David Haye, ultra-endurance athlete Rich Roll and Germany's strongest man, Patrik Baboumian. Follow in their footsteps to see what you can achieve by giving up meat, eggs and dairy products.

Live stronger. Live kinder. Choose vegan.
